Identification of residual molecular signatures. a Comparison of residual molecular signatures across treatments. b Meta-features of residual molecular signatures were differentially expressed in RA after drug treatment. Meta-features of residual molecular signatures were quantified by summarizing residual transcripts and proteins via the ssGSEA method. The levels of meta-features between RA and HC or before and after treatment were tested by Welch’s t-test or the paired t-test, respectively. The asterisk represents a p value <0.05. The upper, center, and lower line of the boxplot indicates 75%, 50%, and 25% quantile, respectively. The upper and lower whisker of the boxplot indicates 75% quantile +1.5 * interquartile range (IQR) and 25% quantile −1.5 * IQR. c Remission parameters associated with residual molecular signatures. The levels of meta-features for residual molecular signatures were associated with DAS28-ESR, CDAI, and HAQ-DI before and after treatment (Spearman’s correlation; n = 30; *p < 0.05)
